Cloud backup with restic

Yes, I’ve tried multiple approaches in the past to get an offsite-backup up and running. I’ve used rsync first and then obnam and duplicity with encryption. Both successful with remote ssh-hosts.

But times are changing and I wanted to use a cloud-storage provider now instead of a dedicated remote host for my backups – so I started with duplicity/duply to get AWS S3 access running – that worked quite good.
